Inspired // the Nursery

With my due date looming just a couple months away, I've caught the nesting bug big time. I'm just beginning to put some serious thought into the nursery. So far we have purchased and put together a crib (aka the cat's new favorite napping spot- should probably break her of that habit soon!) but otherwise the room is looking pretty naked! Although we don't plan on staying in our apartment for the long haul, I want to pick lovely and functional pieces that we can grow and move with. On my wish list...plenty of plants, fiber art wall hangings, tons of storage in pretty prayer baskets, a fun and brightly patterned rug, a cozy glider to cuddle up in, and a sweet and simple mobile to hang above Moon Pie's little head.

My dream nursery style could best be described as luxe modern boho. Is that a thing? Anyway, check out some of my favorite pieces below!

I'VE BEEN KEEPING A SECRET...

Let me start by saying that I absolutely hate secrets. Maybe it's my type A personality, but I can't stand when surprises are kept from me, and it's literally torture for me to hold in classified information. But man, oh man, have I been sitting on a big ol juicy (super adorable) secret for months now. I'm having a baby, you guys! Phew, it feels SO good to spill the beans!

Meet our little one, who we've affectionately nicknamed Moon Pie. I'm 6 months along now, due October 14th, and Matt and I are beside-ourselves-excited! Moon Pie is a way active little baby (punching and kicking like crazy!), loves listening to Neil Young, and doing yoga. And I'm a happy and healthy mama-to-be, with a constant craving for spinach and egg salad and berries.

Thanks for sharing in our happiness! I can't wait to share more with you as we get our lives and our home ready for this little bundle of joy! (And in case you're wondering, our t-shirts came from here.)
